• an identification tab where students look through magazines or other printed material to find the letter. Letter stickers or stamps can also be used in this section.
• a writing tab where students will practice writing the letter. At the end of the product are writing lines included if you want to write on primary lines.
• a phonics page where students look for pictures that begin with the letter to glue on the page.

How to Use:

To use these notebook pages, students will cut along the dotted lines to separate the different features. The students will glue the "I know the letter" section to the top of the left hand page and will glue the "I can find things that start with" the letter on the right hand page. The capital letter and lowercase letter cards should go directly under the "I know the letter" header. The "I can find" and "I can write" flaps should go under the capital and lowercase letter cards, making sure to only put glue on the backside where the solid line is located. Students will look through magazines or other printed material to find examples of the letter in print as well as pictures that begin with the letter to glue in the appropriate locations.
